3 Best/ Worst ITFC loan signings? 00:21 - Jan 5 with 14715 viewsradiogaga

With all this talk of loans recently, who are your 3 best and worst loan signings?

My 3 best would be:
Dos Santos (only for a month or so, but was easily one of the most talented footballers we've had at the club for some time)
Bullard (class when we had him on loan in 2010/2011)
Reuser in 2000 (Don't need to explain)

My 3 worst would be:
Mark Fish (Hauled off at half time on his debut, and never seen again)
Zeki Fryers (Utterly horrendous performance at Huddersfield a few years back, not seen again after)
Jordan Graham (2 loans spells, impressively ineffective both times)

Can't really disagree with your three best.

I'd like to make a case for Ian Juryeff and Mark Stuart for the worst.

I liked Mark Noble, Alan Mahon and Chris Bart Williams back in 2006. Think they arrived at the same time and helped kick start our season under Royle. The best loan signing of the lot though was Jim Magilton.

I forget he was a loanee at first.

Agree with all of those. I suppose you could argue that Francis Jeffers had a bigger impact on Town's fortunes than Dos Santos did, although Gio was clearly the better/more popular player.

...and Gerry Crainey. I remember watching him away to Oxford around Xmas/New Year and I swear he was pi$$ed. He did have a decent Inspiral Carpets haircut though.

good shout on Campbell; banged in a lot of goals for us early in Mick's reign. Then strangely disappeared.

I'm sure Mark Stuart bagged a brace on his debut away at Watford. Think we lost 3-2 though

Magilton knocks out Bullard, although I agree he was class when here on loan

Worst has so many contenders - could name anyone from the likes of Clegg and Vernazza in the 90’s to more recent arrivals likes Wabara or Fryers and it would be hard to disagree

In fairness I don't think Murphy was that great when on loan!

I'm going to throw Chris Wood into the mix for worst. Came in when our season was still alive and looked so out of shape he played like a big lump of a Sunday league forward and our season fizzled out. We've had worse players I'm sure, but based on cost and expectation versus performance he was terrible.

He did. He had an absolute belter and I was waxing lyrical about him at sixth form on the Monday. On the Tuesday at home v Portmsouth, he was utter horsesh!t and got progressively worse from there. Think the Watford game was 3-3.

Wasn't Gerry the player we got in from Man City, who in a local radio interview on first arriving said "I just want to do the time here and get back to Manchester"?

I'll raise you Rory Fallon ... Unbelievable that at the time he was meant to solve a striker problem!

Top thread this. I thought you had nailed it with your picks bit some other strong suggestions.

How about a loan XI we suggest all nominees and then I will run a poll for each position? Has to be based on loan performance so Bart is not in but Bullard is. Players can only be one 1 position
